TL;DR: Considering mechanical and physical properties similar to bone, PEEK can be used in many areas of dentistry and further modifications and improving the material properties may increase its applications in clinical dentistry.

TL;DR: A comprehensive review of the current published literature investigating the various methods and techniques for scanning, designing, and fabrication of CAD/CAM generated restorations along with detailing the new classifications of CAD-CAM technology is presented.

TL;DR: A narrative review explores the extent of the current knowledge of soft tissue barriers around implants from both a basic and clinical perspective, and aims to consolidate this knowledge and highlight the most pertinent questions relating to this area of research.

TL;DR: Evaluated resin cement systems with different ceramic/glass-polymer materials might promote the bonding capacity of these systems, and thermal cycling significantly decreased bond strength values of resin cements to ceramics.

TL;DR: In general, allergic risk of titanium material is smaller than that of other metal materials, but it is suggested that pre-implant patients should be asked about a history of hypersensitivity reactions to metals, and patch testing should be recommended to patients who have experienced such reactions.

TL;DR: The study validated the English-language 5-item OHIP5 by investigating its psychometric properties of dimensionality, reliability, and validity in the adult general population.

TL;DR: In the extensive literature regarding advantages of using IDS technique significant differences have been shown when compared to Delayed Dentine Sealing, presently there are NO scientific reasons not to recommend IDS in routine practice.

TL;DR: Incorporation of different antifungal medicaments to commercially available tissue conditioners can be recommended for the management of denture induced stomatitis and the review literature reported that incorporation of antIFungal agents into tissue conditioner is effective with minimal or no effects on physical and mechanical properties of tissueconditioners.

TL;DR: The diagnostic validity of self-reported measures of SB was low to modest using an ambulatory single-channel EMG device assessment as a reference, which should be taken into consideration in the clinical evaluation of patients.

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of atmospheric pressure low-temperature plasma treatment on the shear bond strength between zirconia and adhesive resin cement was examined using X-ray diffractometry.

TL;DR: Sintering time may be effective on the bond strength and 30 μm silica coating (Cojet) with silane coupling application technique increased the Bond strength between resin cement and differently sintered zirconium-oxide ceramics.

TL;DR: The implant crown emergence profile could be shaped immediately after reopening according to the three-dimensional radiographic contour of the digitally flipped contra-lateral tooth.

TL;DR: While Co-Cr Posts fabricated by TC and DMLS systems performed similarly in terms of fracture resistance, posts fabricated by CCM techniques showed higher fracture resistance values.

TL;DR: The results indicate that the electronic strain analysis is an appropriate and cost saving method to verify the finite element model and reveal that the veneer layer on buccal surface of the connector is the weakest area in the fixed partial denture.

TL;DR: Immediate loading of mandibular two-implant overdentures with magnetic attachments tends to improve oral health-related quality of life and patient assessment earlier than observed with a conventional loading protocol.

TL;DR: Despite that the scarce data is largely limited to case reports and case series, implant site enhancement by means of orthodontic extrusion seems to be a promising option to improve soft and hard tissue conditions before implant placement.

TL;DR: A novel treatment protocol for immediately loaded implant-supported mandibular overdentures supported by two freestanding implants loaded immediately after placement via computer-guided flapless surgery is described in detail.

TL;DR: After mid-term observation, survival of MDI was good, however, the incidence of denture base fractures and of minor prosthetic complications should not be under-estimated.

TL;DR: This experimental study provided quantitative data regarding the effect of implant location on load distribution with ISRPDs and suggested that denture design on the load distribution is needed for determining the proper implant location of ISR PD.

TL;DR: The effects of LIPUS on soft tissue healing using gingival epithelial cells are examined to demonstrate its promotion and up-regulates the expression level of integrin α6β4 as compared with the control.

TL;DR: It was shown that various states of dentition classified by Miyachi's Triangular Classification at the age of 70 resulted in different numbers of remaining teeth and occlusal supports and changes in masticatory ability 10 years later in community-dwelling elderly people.

TL;DR: The present findings suggest that the type of surgery received might influence food mixing ability, as well as perceived chewing ability, objective masticatory function, and oral health-related quality of life in patients who required a dento-maxillary prosthesis postoperatively.

TL;DR: Both investigated occlusal concepts for complete dentures were comparable in their effect on patients' perceptions with none being considerably superior in terms of OHRQoL.

TL;DR: Although there is a temporary functional limitation after implant placement in overall OHRQoL improvement was observed after the definitive prosthesis placement, implant treatment was more effective in the unilateral free-end edentulous space.

TL;DR: Increasing fiber content results in higher flexural and diametral tensile strength of an experimental composite reinforced with glass fibers.

TL;DR: Local IFN-γ administration promoted bone formation in autogenous bone grafts possibly via regulating osteoclastogenesis and TNF-α expression, and the data provide insights into the potential roles of IFn-γ in autogeneous bone grafting.

TL;DR: SS therapy relieved excessive loading on the TMJ in the TMD OA patients, who showed, via CBCT superimposition, less bone resorption in the glenoid fossa.

TL;DR: A computer assisted mandibular reconstruction procedure, utilizing a custom-made Ti-mesh tray with particulate cancellous bone and marrow, and a removable denture, based on the top-down treatment technique is proposed, advantageous in reconstructing functional occlusion, and in accurately regaining dental and facial esthetics.

TL;DR: A case in which Ce-TZP/A was applied to the frameworks of a mandibular ISCFPD and a maxillary complete denture, where no particularly notable biological or prosthetic complications were observed, and a high level of patient satisfaction was achieved.

TL;DR: The results suggested that some of the acrylic materials used as denture base materials may also be usable for NMCDs, and that the flexural properties ofThe acrylic material PI resemble those of ES, ESB and ACT, meaning that similar clasp designs mayAlso be feasible.
